Happy
#WorldOceansDay! Join us in celebrating our amazing aquatic friends like the Sea Star, Sailfin Tang, Harlequin Shrimp, Sea Urchin, and so many more! Did you know that millions of animals rely on invertebrates that live in our oceans? Coral provides shelter, food, and nursery and breeding grounds for about 25% of all ocean life! Aquatic invertebrates also act as scavengers that help keep our oceans clean, serve as valuable food sources for other animals, indicate ocean health, and contribute to biodiversity — making up the majority of all marine animal species.
To learn more about these incredible creatures and Butterfly Pavilion’s efforts to protect them, visit our Water’s Edge exhibit. Get your tickets at
